Welcome to the CSSDN EFL Starter Kit. This website was created to assist teachers with finding activities targeted for early beginners in ESL/EFL, aged 12 to 16 years old, evolbing in their regular ESL classroom. The themes on the Home Page have been selected to meet the immediate needs of a student starting in English and have been organized to follow a progression to build upon the previous theme. The structure in each theme and subtheme allows the students to familiarize themselves independently with the vocabulary, create a personal dictionary with the help of the accompanying booklet, get some individual practice and interact orally with peers in the class.
This is version 1.0 of the website. Don't hesitate to share your feedback with us at stpierrem31@cssdn.gouv.qc.ca.
